Kungakhathaliseki ukuthi kusukela olwandle olujulile kuya ezintabeni ezinde kakhulu, noma kusukela emoyeni nasenhlabathini kuya ochungechungeni lokudla, imfucumfucu yepulasitiki encane isivele ikhona cishe yonke indawo eMhlabeni. Manje, izifundo ezengeziwe zibonise ukuthi ipulasitiki encane “ingene” egazini labantu.
I-Micro Amapulasitiki atholakale egazini lomuntu okokuqala ngqa!
Ngokuvamile, imfucumfucu yepulasitiki engaphansi kuka-5mm ububanzi ibizwa ngokuthi “amapulasitiki amancane”, futhi ivolumu yayo encane kakhulu yenza kube nzima ngathi ukuqaphela ukuthi ikhona.
Muva nje, ucwaningo olushicilelwe ephephabhukwini i-International environment lubonisa ukuthi ososayensi bathole ukungcola kwepulasitiki encane egazini lomuntu okokuqala. Izifundo zangaphambilini zithole amapulasitiki amancane emathunjini, i-placenta yezingane ezingakazalwa kanye nendle yabantu abadala kanye nezinsana, kodwa amapulasitiki amancane awakaze atholakale kumasampula egazi.
Ucwaningo luhlole amasampula egazi avela kubantu abangu-22 abangochwepheshe abanempilo futhi lwathola ukuthi amasampula angu-77% aqukethe ama-microplastics anesilinganiso sokuhlushwa okungu-1.6 micrograms nge-milliliter.
Kwahlolwa izinhlobo ezinhlanu zepulasitiki: i-polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), i-polypropylene (PP), i-polystyrene (PS), i-polyethylene (PE) kanye ne-polyethylene terephthalate (PET).
I-PMMA, eyaziwa nangokuthi i-acrylic noma i-plexiglass, isetshenziswa kakhulu ekubukekeni kwemishini kagesi kanye nemishini yokukhanyisa.
I-PP isetshenziswa kabanzi emabhokisini okuthatha ukudla, emabhokisini okugcina ukudla okusha kanye namabhodlela obisi.
I-PS isetshenziswa kabanzi ezintweni zokupakisha ukudla ezilahlwayo.
I-PE ivame ukusetshenziselwa ukupakisha amafilimu nezikhwama zepulasitiki, njengezikhwama zokugcina izinto ezintsha namafilimu okugcina izinto ezintsha.
I-PET ivame ukusetshenziselwa ukubukeka kwamabhodlela amanzi amaminerali, amabhodlela eziphuzo kanye nezinto zasendlini ezahlukahlukene.
Imiphumela ibonise ukuthi cishe ingxenye yamasampula egazi ibonise iminonjana yepulasitiki ye-PET, amasampula egazi angaphezu kwengxenye yesithathu aqukethe i-PS kanti cishe ingxenye yesine yamasampula egazi aqukethe i-PE.
Okumangaza nakakhulu ukuthi abacwaningi bathole izinhlobo ezintathu ezahlukene zepulasitiki ezincane kusampula yegazi.
Ukuhlushwa kwezinhlayiya zepulasitiki zamasampula egazi angu-22 kwahlukaniswa ngohlobo lwe-polymer
Amapulasitiki amancane angena kanjani egazini?
Ucwaningo lubonisa ukuthi la mapulasitiki amancane angangena emzimbeni womuntu ngomoya, ngamanzi noma ngokudla, noma ngamazinyo athile, i-lipstick kanye ne-tattoo inki. Ngokwethiyori, izinhlayiya zepulasitiki zingathuthwa ngegazi ziye ezithweni ezahlukahlukene emzimbeni wonke.
Abacwaningi bathi kungenzeka kube nezinye izinhlobo ze-microplastic egazini, kodwa abazange bathole izinhlayiya ezinkulu kunobubanzi benaliti yokulinganisa kulolu cwaningo.
Nakuba umthelela wepulasitiki encane empilweni yabantu ungacacile, abacwaningi bakhathazekile ngokuthi ipulasitiki encane izobangela umonakalo emangqamuzaneni abantu. Ngaphambilini, izinhlayiya zokungcola komoya ziye zabonakala zingena emzimbeni womuntu futhi zibangela izigidi zabantu abafa ngaphambi kwesikhathi minyaka yonke.
Iphi indlela yokuphuma ekungcolisweni kwepulasitiki?
I-Geotegrity yaseMpumalanga EkudeIzitsha zokudla zokuvikela imvelo ezithambile zithole udumo olukhulu emakethe ngezici zazo ezihlukile kanye nesitayela sokuvikela imvelo sezinhlobonhlobo zezinto zokusetshenziswa,ukuwohloka okulula, ukuphinde kusetshenziswe kabusha kanye nokuvuselelwa, okwenza kuvelele phakathi kwazo zonke izinhlobo zezinto ezisetshenziswa esikhundleni sepulasitiki. Imikhiqizo ingonakaliswa ngokuphelele esimweni sayo semvelo zingakapheli izinsuku ezingama-90, futhi ingasetshenziswa nasekuhlanganiseni umquba emakhaya nasezimbonini. Izingxenye eziyinhloko ngemva kokuwohloka kwamanzi kanye ne-carbon dioxide, okungeke kukhiqize izinsalela zemfucuza kanye nokungcola.
Imikhiqizo yokupakisha ukudla (izinto zokudla zasetafuleni) eMpumalanga Ekude. Imikhiqizo yokuvikela imvelo yokuvikela imvelo isebenzisa utshani bezolimo, ilayisi kanye notshani bukakolweni,umobakanye nomhlanga njengezinto zokusetshenziswa ukuze kutholakale ukungcola kanyeukonga amandlaukukhiqizwa kanye nokusetshenziswa kabusha kwamandla ahlanzekile. Uphumelele isitifiketi samazwe ngamazwe se-9000; isitifiketi sokuvikelwa kwemvelo se-14000, uphumelele ukuhlolwa nokuhlolwa kwamazwe ngamazwe kwe-FDA, UL, CE, SGS kanye noMnyango Wezempilo Nenhlalakahle waseJapan e-United States kanye ne-European Union, ufinyelele izinga lokuhlanzeka kwamazwe ngamazwe lokupakisha ukudla, futhi uwine isihloko sokuhlonipha esithi “umkhiqizo wokuqala we-Fujian oyinhloko embonini yokukhiqiza”.
Njengosongo lomhlaba wonke, ukungcola kwepulasitiki kubeka usongo olukhulu empilweni yabantu ngesimo sepulasitiki encane namakhemikhali anobuthi.I-Far East Geotrgrityunesibindi sokuthatha umthwalo wemfanelo wezenhlalo wezinkampani, ukunamathela ekusungulweni kwesayensi nobuchwepheshe kanye nokukhuthaza imbangela yezitsha zokudla eziluhlaza! Ukuze ashiye umhlaba ohlanzekile nomuhle ezizukulwaneni ezizayo, i-Far East Geotegrity izoqhubeka nokusebenza kanye nokubambisana nabantu abanolwazi embonini ngesifiso nesenzo sokubhekana ngenkuthalo nokungcola kwepulasitiki, enze imizamo engapheli yokukhuthaza intuthuko yabantu esimeme kanye nokwakha umphakathi wokuphila phakathi kwabantu nemvelo.
